Zitat des Tages von Nicola Sturgeon:
Sometimes things happen in life, sometimes they don't. Don't get me wrong: I have no regrets - if I could turn the clock back 10 or 20 years, I wouldn't want to fundamentally change the path my life has taken.
I'm not a scientist. If there is a risk to our environment, there will be no fracking.
I'm the leader of the SNP. I think you would expect me to say I would vote SNP in whatever constituency I lived in.
Maybe its time for politicians to fight back a little bit in terms of this notion that politicians are all in it for themselves, we're all the same, we're not driven by sincere motives. Because the fact of the matter is the vast majority are.
Literally every time I'm on camera, as well as there being commentary on what I've said, there'll be commentary on what my hair looked like, what I wear. Often it's written in the most hideous and quite cruel way.
Equality and prosperity shouldn't be seen as enemies of each other, but as partners. One reinforces the other.
I'm not going to do anything that sees a Tory government be likely.
People in Scotland don't take too kindly to being lectured by a Tory Chancellor.
I think the first decision I took when I became a government minister was to reverse the planned closure of Monklands Accident and Emergency. It's an issue close to my heart.
The U.K. needs a strong opposition, and Labour shows no signs of being capable of being that. The SNP is filling that void and will go on seeking to do that.
Some of the brightest and best women in our society are stifled in their ambitions.
I think the fact that people are even talking about the prospect of the Tories coming second is less about anything the Tories have done and more about the failures of Labour to set out, in any kind of coherent sense, what it's for anymore.
I was studious and bookish. Not just as a child but also as a teenager. I took myself too seriously.
Trespass, the outdoor clothing company based in the South Side, is run by two of the nicest guys and proudest Glaswegians you could meet, Afzal and Akmal Khushi.
Our opposition to Trident is very clear, very firm, very long-standing, very principled, and we would seek to build an alliance to prevent the renewal of Trident.
I know you've got to earn people's trust, and you've got to earn it day after day after day.
A minority government can't govern without support from other parties.
Labour's support in Scotland depends on their ability to be electable. If they are divided and unelectable, what's the point?
Personally, I can think of no greater privilege than to lead the party I joined when I was just 16.
Many hard working people in low paid jobs get housing benefit.
There's nothing in my background that would have said I was destined to be a senior politician.
Too often in the past, Scotland has been sidelined and ignored in the Westminster corridors of power, but that doesn't have to be the case anymore.
Twitter's probably my bad habit.
As a young woman in politics, with few women around, you start to subconsciously behave like men in politics. That comes across as quite hard, tough and humorless, but you're trying to be taken seriously.
Ed Balls has made it crystal clear that, left to its own devices, a Labour government would simply carry on with the same budget policies as the Tories.
The U.K. government sets a cap on how much can be spent on discretionary housing payments.
Instead of an end to austerity, Labour has made clear that it wants to impose more austerity cuts.
Sporting success doesn't happen by accident. It takes hard work and determination on the part of the individual athletes. And it also takes investment in facilities and training support.
London has a centrifugal pull on talent, investment and business from the rest of Europe and the world. That brings benefits to the broader U.K. economy.
Many people from many different walks of life have marriages that break up, and those are deeply personal, deeply painful but ultimately private matters.
We will never vote for the renewal of Trident; that's a decision which will fall to be made in the next Westminster parliament. We will never vote for that.
I've never had a voice coach, but I am about to name drop horrendously here: I did once get some advice on how to project my voice from Sean Connery, which was lovely. It's all about where you breathe. That's my claim to fame.
The oil and gas sector in the North Sea does have a strong future if we do the right things now, but we've got to make sure that the infrastructure is right to support the sector, but also to support, over the next few years, diversification as well.
I've had particularly unpleasant stuff, and it has been reported that I've had death threats. Twitter and Facebook give people who have always been out there a platform from which to hurl abuse, and all I can do is try to block it out and remind myself that tweets are transient and get lost in the ether after a few moments.
Parties that win elections should form the government, not parties that lose elections.
One of Ed Miliband's shadow ministers has said he would never vote for the renewal of Trident.
